Pittsburgh Steelers

Mike McCarthy's first season as Steelers head coach is already bringing significant changes, most notably ending Mike Tomlin’s long-standing tradition of season-long team captains; instead, the team will vote weekly. McCarthy also provided an update on Joey Porter Jr.’s contract situation, stating the team is hopeful for a resolution. Week 1 preparations are underway, with the Falcons confirming Tua Tagovailoa as their starting quarterback.
